But to get to Maximilian, Warbeck has to get the crown. I don't think he can do it. He's not got training, he's an imposter, and I don't think Margaret or Max are going to give him more than moral encouragement. Henry's already proved he can take the crown, Warbeck is a tradesman's son who looked what everyone thought Richard, Duke of York would like at his age. Margaret was the one who backed his pretensions, mostly to piss off Henry VII. Without Margaret's encouragement, Warbeck would never have tried, been captured, tortured and then killed by Henry VII in OTL. (So, I guess Margaret's got blood on her hands.)
Max is a long shot, but precisely for that reason, Max is going to stay out England. He's HRE, he's already got an Empire. Relatives are already negotiating to become part of Henry VII's family. It's easier to take it from within. Why support Warbeck with money and an army? Does Max back an unknown? I don't think so. It's too much a long shot and too much money, men and materials.
